The Artists Are Present #2

The Artists Are Present is ICK Dans Amsterdam's festival in which the new generation of artists present themselves to the public and share the floor with each other. After the first successful edition last autumn in Nieuw-West, the festival now takes place for the first time in Frascati.
 
From Wednesday 13 to Friday 15 December, young dance and performance makers will take you on an exciting journey of discovery in a dynamic programme of performances, unexpected pop-up presentations and talks. 

The short days of December are illuminated by the imagination of dance: fluid identities, rebellious bodies, artificial realities, collective groove and surrender. Each night of the three-day festival is programmed on these shared themes that resonate with contemporary creators. It is an invitation to engage in conversation between artists and audiences. Scattered through the halls of Frascati, The Artists Are Present presents an energetic programme of edgy, poetic, and rebellious makers, both from the Netherlands and abroad. Every night is a new adventure with a different programme.

The new makers and collectives you will discover during The Artists are Present #2 are: Nicola Galli, TREVOGA Collective, Robin Nimanong, Andreas Hannes, Ainhoa Hernández Escudero, Merel Severs & Milou van Duijnhoven, Roshanak Morrowatian, Christian Guerematchi and Collective MAMM. There will also be a lecture-talk by Bogomir Doringer.
